Fantastic lens!
Great color and sharpness
Supurb performance at 1.4f and up
Auto focus is fast, manual focus smooth and quick
I wouldn't trade it for a G lens, at any time.
The only competition this 50mm lens would have is the Nikon 1.2f manual, 50mm.

very sharp
i have had the AF NIKKOR 50mm f/1.4D lens for over a year now. i shoot mainly abstract still
life photographs. this lens was rated well by
3rd party reviewers for price/sharpness. i have
not been disappointed. if you are unable to spend
the additional dollars to acquire a pro-level lens
this lens is a great choice.

Sharp and reliable. When I have to have a good photo, I can always count on this lens.

Answer:
Yes. This lens is completely compatible with the D80. Autofocus and exposure both work very well. Unlike the AFS version, you must flip a switch to go into manual focus with this lens. On the other hand, (at least on a D3S) I found this lens to focus faster than the AFS version. I have used this lens on a D80 and it is great.Mar 14, 2012 by

Answer:
On D3000 you can use this lens only in manual focus mode,but AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.4G will support your D3000 in auto focus, because it have internal Silent Wave Motor (SWM).
Auto focus on D3000 works with all Nikkor lenses, which started from "AF-S NIKKOR ... or
"AF-I NIKKOR
Goodluck

If you want to use this lens on a D3000 you will have to achieve focus manually since the camera body doesn’t have the internal motor for AF.1 year, 1 month ago

Answer:
You can use this lens but it will not have the AF for the D40 or D40x. In order to get the AF, you will need to get lens with (G).
Answer:
Nikon offers two types of autofocus digital camera bodies: those with a built-in focus drive motor and those which require a lens to have a motor. Cameras such as the D40 do not have a focus motor in it so they require the lens to have the focusing motor – an “AF-S” lens. While these bodies can use a lens with no focus motor (an “AF” lens) you would have to manually turn the focus ring to bring the subject in to sharp focus.You may want to try the AF-S version of this lens.
What's the actual (what I see) focal length of this lens on a DX body and FX body? Also is the 50mm 1.4G the same focal lengths?

Answer:
It is a good lens and as Joe says creates nice bokeh. You have to be very careful though when using a lens like this with a low aperture, as it is easy to not get the focus not quite correct when focusing (for portrait mostly focus on the eyes) and this can ruin a photo.Answer:
Yes, when used correctly it produces a very nice bokeh.11 months ago
